Whatcha readin?

Now that I'm back to the college grind, my extracurricular reading will be
severely curtailed.  However, I'm re-reading _Vineland_, Fear and Loathing
on the Campaign Trail_, and Eagleton's _The Illusions of Postmodernism_
(actually, all of this is for an independent study I'm doing).  Any other
pomo suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Music-wise, I, too, have been listening to early Steely Dan, The Best of
Missing Persons, Talking Heads, and lots of Was (Not Was).
